Only a Gump fanbase can lose their leading sack player and their 2nd best tackling lb and assume their front 7 will dominate.



Okay?? The '12 team had to replace Barron, Kirkpatrick, Hightower, Upshaw, Chapman, and Gentry. Was the '12 defense up to '11's play? No, but it was still one of the top defenses, if not the best defense, in the nation that year.

Alabama returns both highly touted defensive frontman in A'Shawn and Reed this year, as well as returning a alpha leader linebacker in Ragland who's play in the 2nd half of the season has him predicted to win the Butkus for the upcoming year. Brown and Jones at the CB position is huge, as well as adding Tucker to the coaching staff. I don't see how predicting Alabama to have the best defense in the conference is far-fetched seeing how Alabama's defense has been pretty much fighting for 1st place in the SEC since 2008.

They can be touted as the next JJ Watt and Reggie White but if they continue to NOT PRODUCE, it doesn't matter.
